Nomex® Paper, An Original Benchmark for Performance, Reliability

DuPont™ Nomex® is a brand that has earned the trust of manufacturers around the world by delivering superior quality and proven reliability for a wide range of electrical insulation applications.

For nearly 50 years, Nomex® has been the material of choice for electrical insulation, helping to extend the life of electrical equipment and prevent premature failures.

Within the Nomex® family of products—primarily Nomex® paper and pressboard in various forms—there’s a high-quality material to address virtually any electrical insulation requirement.

By using Nomex® paper as electrical insulation, manufacturers of everything from transformers and generators to wind turbine systems and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) have been able to help improve the integrity and performance of their own products.

Nomex® paper has played a key role in positioning DuPont as a global leader in electrical insulation systems which are used in electrical equipment covered by applicable UL, IEC and country specific standards such as IEEE and JL.

With a continuing focus on technical innovation, DuPont is working closely with engineers throughout the electrical industry as they develop new and modified products using Nomex® that will help them meet the evolving electrical insulation needs of the future.

Uses and Applications

DUPONT PRODUCTS & SERVICES

Nomex® 410, an original benchmark product, is widely used for a majority of electrical equipment applications and is considered our gold standard based on its more than 50 years of proven performance. It anchors the Nomex® 400 Series.

DuPont works with highly qualified laminators who produce high-quality laminate insulation products based on Nomex® paper to address a broad range of performance requirements. Nomex® is the critical component that helps enable these laminates to perform.

From automatic and manual wrapping of transformer and motor leads to continuous transposed cable wrap, insulating crepe paper made with Nomex® is an ideal choice for applications requiring a high degree of conformability and elasticity.

For more than 30 years, Brithinee Electric has been building customer confidence and business growth with an uncompromising demand for quality and exclusive use of Nomex® insulation to meet its electric motor repair requirements.

In 2000, CG Power Systems teamed up with DuPont to develop high-temperature, liquid-immersed transformers targeted at the wind segment. Today, thousands of wind turbine transformers with Nomex® insulation have been installed globally.

Flanders Electric provides the highest quality power products and services, including industrial motor repair. An integral part of the quality equation is the use of Nomex® paper and Nomex® based laminates.
